Roblox is a free virtual online MMOG building game designed for kids 8-18 years old.. The game is made up of Lego-esque bricks designed by the players. Roblox has no pre-defined goals. Players are allowed to build anything such as houses, or code with a simpler, easier to use version of Lua. Roblox has in-game avatar chat, physics, and 3d Environments. Players can earn in-game currency for their creations, and badges to show on their User page. The avatars are completely customizable and its customization shows in-game. The Roblox admins hold contests which give away the special currency called Robux. Roblox sells a service called Builders Club which gives more area for their users to save their creations. Roblox has reached over 2,000,000 users, and even created a hat to celebrate the 100,000th milestone.
